Geobiology integrates many disciplines, from genomics to
paleoenvironmental modeling to paleontology and geochemical
analysis. They can be fruitful individually but, when combined,
result in profound insights about life-past, present, future and
elsewhere. Acknowledging that earth and life are interacting during
the whole process and the earth today are a result of long time of
molds to life, geobiology science investigates macro- and
micro-scale changes in the present as well as in the fossil record.
Methodological approaches used in geobiology varies from lab
experiments to field investigations. Geobiology is a new scientific
disciplinary, which has just been defined in the last decade.
Geobiology is the study of the relations between the Earth and
life. It is an area which allows the study of the effects of the
cosmic and earthly rays, of the architectural forms, of materials,
of colors, of technological products, etc..., on living beings. We
all have seen that certain locations spread a feeling of wellbeing,
whereas other places let us feel uneasy. For certain families or
businesses, only bad luck is to be found; for others, success.
Everything around us is vibrations. The energy forces of our
environment can be harmonious or in disharmony. Our living space,
our place of work and our recreation areas are under the influence
of these forces, acting unsuspectingly on our organism. These
waves, present in the entire universe, may cause varying pathogenic
effects and affect our physical and mental well-being, as well as
our behavior. After a long-term exposure at harmful locations,
troubles may appear, ranging from simple disagreements to more
serious pathologies: loss of vitality, insomnia, cancer, suicide,
dementia... according to the sensibility of the individual Given
the fact that geobiology can be embodied in any geography or
biology related research fields, this book gives a holistic
perspective of this science. Subjects in this book include
geobiology approaches in environmental problems, natural resource,
archeology, archaeology, social science research, and
biotechnology. Geobiology is an exciting and rapidly developing
research discipline that opens new perspectives in understanding
Earth as a system. To determine and to exploit its possibilities,
this promising scientific field will benefit from a discussion of
its definition as a research discipline, its objectives, and its
methodological approaches. Such a spirited discussion is the
objective of the book. Geobiology touches various subdisciplines of
geology and biology in many ways. The book will serve
biogeochemists, paleontologists, biomineralogists, microbiologists
and many others as a forum to determine future directions of
geobiological research.
